News - 11th Feb 2006Hotels: Terry Holmes retires from the StaffordI met Terry Holmes when working as one of the design team on the refurbishment of the Stafford when it was bought by Shire Hotels for £16 million in the mid-nineties and restored to its position , as London’s Evening Standard described it, as one of the ‘Best of British’. In my mind there are only a score of individuals I have met in our industry who for me epitomise everything an hotelier should be. Terry Holmes was one of these, from his smile, his cigar and that definite confident ‘bon hommie’ with which he greeted everyone to ‘his’ hotel.
